I was invited to submit a poem to this stunning exhibition at Lighthouse Arts to celebrate the migration of whales along the east coast of Australia. My poem, titled “Migaloo” (after the beautiful and well-known Albino humpback) will be printed either A1 or A2, framed and exhibited beside stunning artworks about whales. There will be photographs, print works, paintings and other media on display including artworks by Aboriginal artists Emily Lloyd, Siarn Staley, Saretta Fielding, Wanda Matthews and her sister Charmon accompanying the Awabakal whale story provided by Bronwyn and Shane Frost. The exhibition opens Saturday 6th August and will run until Sunday 18th September, with the Exhibition Space open on Saturdays and Sundays between 10am and 4pm. You might even catch sight of a migrating whale!
